Nibali seems to be cruising. Now with Landa out Valverde is the obvious danger, but I just think Nibali is a better all round rider and 'The Shark' has more tactical nous than Valverde.Provided Nibali stays healthy i think in the final week his class and staying power will show out and its his Giro to lose

ITT sure was interesting, 2:12 is a good lead for Kruijswijk & he seems to have the form to defend it. I don't think Chaves can make that up in the last week, but it will be good to see him try. Nibili & piti are down but not out.

Brilliant GT, great to watch and LOVED Chavez interview at the end. Came 2nd and still rapt and no excuses.He is great and despite not beaing able to support well in the mountains, the team still punched well above their weight.

Great effort & result.

I agree about Orica Greenedge's support. They were there when it mattered, and the team tactics looked faultless.
